Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Mark Barry 2017-06-19 01:53:02 UTC 
Description of problem:
Incorrect parameter name (kind) listed for `hammer template update` command when type parameter is missing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
hammer --version
hammer (0.10.0)
 * hammer_cli_foreman (0.10.0)
 * hammer_cli_foreman_bootdisk (0.1.3)
 * hammer_cli_foreman_docker (unknown version)
 * hammer_cli_foreman_tasks (unknown version)
 * hammer_cli_import (0.11.3)
 * hammer_cli_katello (0.10.0)


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. hammer -p password template update --name "pxelinux_discovery" --locked false

Actual results:
Could not update the provisioning template:
  Template kind can't be blank


Expected results:
Could not update the provisioning template:
  Template type can't be blank


Additional info:
On the /templates/provisioning_templates (Provisioning Templates) web page, the headings include Kind and Snippet, which represents the Type parameter.
To me, it would make sense to also update the web interface to have Type as the header, so that the two interfaces are consistent.
Comment 2 Tomas Strachota 2017-06-28 14:04:10 UTC 
This happens only when updating snippets. The message is incorrect but the main issue here is that the kind parameter shouldn't be required at all.

I updated the title accordingly.

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/20145 has been resolved.
